Chapter 8: A Walk in the Rain

Li Xumu, who walked out of the door of the unit, looked a little dazed, but he still didn't recover from the experience just now, and his heart was full of pity for Zhao Yunuo's distress and her family's suffering. But it is also the most relaxing day in these 5 days, at least I know that Zhao Yunuo did not have any accidents, and when he dialed the mobile phone again, he still prompted to turn it off.

It was close to noon, but the sky was getting darker. Raindrops began to fall on the dry concrete floor.

Han Wei called at this time to urge a few words, Li Xumu looked at the raindrops that were gradually getting closer, gritted his teeth and decided to rush home to make peace with Han Wei.

Li Xumu recalled that when he was with Zhao Yunuo, he promised to go to a university together after the college entrance examination, it was a cicada summer night on the eve of the college entrance examination, and the two people sat side by side under the moon and hooked their little fingers to make an agreement, but now why did they quietly go to Yungang University without saying hello, and went to the school in advance before the first day of school.

Now although I decided to go to the school to find Zhao Yunuo in person, but the reality is very helpless, my score is not enough for such a key university, Zhao Yunuo himself is a good student with excellent character and learning, it can be another matter, but now how can I realize the agreement.

Li Xumu turned to think that people like Han Wei could be admitted, could it be that this university would do anything for the sake of recruitment? Anyway, I have to volunteer and give it a try.

Li Xumu stepped out of the door of the unit, and the cool raindrops instantly filled his body, and a thunder rang down, resounding through the sky, and the rain became heavier. At this time, an open umbrella blocked Li Xumu's head from behind.

Li Xumu turned around and found that it was Zhang Xiaochai. She held an umbrella in one hand and put the other behind her back, smiling sweetly at herself with her head sideways.

"Ah, why are you here?" Li Xumu was a little surprised.

"Give you an umbrella, you wood! Want to be drenched to death in such heavy rain? ”

"How do you know I'm here?"

"You said you were going to Zhao Yunuo's house to find her in the morning, didn't your high school classmates allow me to know the location of her house?" Zhang Xiaochai pursed her lips and turned her head to the side unhappily, muttering in a low voice: "Hmph, I don't know how to thank you for sending you an umbrella, and I asked about it...."

Li Xumu found that Zhang Xiaochai's right shoulder was already wet in order to cover himself from the rain, so he leaned towards the center of the umbrella while thanking him.

"Thank you, I'll take an umbrella and walk together." Li Xumu snatched the umbrella and leaned the wings towards Zhang Xiaochai.

The two walked side by side in the rain like this, their arms in short sleeves touched from time to time, and the shy Zhang Xiaochai also fell silent.

Li Xumu used the peripheral vision of his eyes to find that Zhang Xiaochai's cheeks were a little red when he was walking with his head down, and he was embarrassed in his heart, and put a hand into his trouser pocket. Li Xumu secretly felt bad in his heart, this must have been unintentionally putting this photo in his pocket in a panic just now.

"Huh? Yungang University graduation photo? Zhang Xiaochai curiously snatched the photo into his hand, looked at it carefully, and looked at Li Xumu, who was a head taller than him, and asked: "There is a beautiful girl in this photo, who looks like Zhao Yunuo!" ”

Li Xumu explained what happened, but he didn't tell Zhao Yunuo's sister about the accident, after all, Zhao Yunuo didn't tell herself, and it was not easy to tell people what she knew from her parents. After hearing this, Zhang Xiaochai's eyes rolled smartly and said: "It turns out that this person is her sister, and Yu Nuo can't be contacted, so she also went to the school where her sister graduated." Oh, she's fine. ”

"Really, there's nothing to hide about going to college, and don't say hello to make us worry in vain." Zhang Xiaochai said in a low voice, and then glanced at the graduation photo in his hand, and found that more than a dozen of them were expressionless.

Zhang Xiaochai was very puzzled in his heart, everyone was happy in the graduation photo, but why did these people have such a loveless expression, and the general graduation photos are based on the class or department level, Zhang Xiaochai secretly counted in his heart, there are only 12 people, how can a graduation photo be so popular?

Zhang Xiaochai returned the photo to Li Xumu with doubts, hesitated for a moment and asked, "We are also about to enter the university, do you have an ideal goal?" ”

Li Xumu inserted the photo back into his trouser pocket, looked down at the splash of his shoes step by step, and thought for a long time. Looking back on the bits and pieces of the past, there is nothing worth reminiscing. An ordinary family, whose parents divorced since childhood, has never seen his father's appearance or news, and is not a good student in school, and may not be long after graduation, high school teachers and classmates will forget about themselves. Even the closest girlfriend has now lost contact, and such a life start, although it is not a failure, but it cannot be regarded as a success.

"Ideal goal... I never thought that maybe I am a person who really likes to go with the flow, not the kind of person who is excellent in people's hearts, and in your opinion, am I not very motivated? Li Xumu said lightly.

Zhang Xiaochai looked at Li Xumu's deep expression with a sideways face, his eyes flickered slightly, and after hesitating for a while, he put his hand on Li Xumu's shoulder and responded: "You will always be the best in my heart, no matter what, I will support you silently behind your back, who makes us always be.. … Good friend, right? ”

Li Xumu squinted his eyes after hearing this, smiled at Zhang Xiaochai knowingly and said: "Look at me, let the atmosphere be so solemn, maybe too many things have happened this day and I'm a little tired, if you want to ask me which university I want to go to, maybe my current goal is Yungang University!" After all, Zhao Yunuo and I once agreed to go to the same university together. ”

"Oh..."After hearing this, Zhang Xiaochai gently took his hand off Li Xumu's shoulder, his expression was low for a while, and then he raised his head again, and smiled: "Then I will also go to Yungang University!" You know my sister's academic performance! It shouldn't be a problem! ”

Li Xumu was a little surprised when he heard this, and Zhang Xiaochai continued: "You and she agreed to go to a university together, and I also agreed with myself!" No matter where you go to school, I'll follow, don't try to get rid of me! Ha ha! ”

"Childish." Li Xumu fell silent and did not respond.

When the rain fell, the trees on the side of the street stopped swaying and fell silent. Only the fresh green leaves nodded with the beating of the raindrops.

The footsteps of the two men stopped in front of a large pool of stagnant water.

Li Xumu stared at Zhang Xiaochai's face, Zhang Xiaochai looked at it suspiciously, and when his eyes met, he immediately dodged, as if he understood what Li Xumu meant.

Li Xumu smiled, handed the umbrella to Zhang Xiaochai, took a step forward, half-squatted down, and stretched his arms back. "Come on, I'll carry you over, and I should return your umbrella."

Zhang Xiaochai held the handle of the umbrella with both hands on his chest, and looked at Li Xumu's half-squatting figure stupidly, a little flattered by this sudden move.

"Come up! Aren't you afraid I'll get drenched? ”

"Ahh … Oh..."

Zhang Xiaochai moved a few small steps, his knees lightly pressed against Li Xumu's back, and before he was ready, Li Xumu hugged his thighs and stood up hard, due to inertia, Zhang Xiaochai's entire chest was attached to Li Xumu's body, and he couldn't help screaming softly.

"Sit down and go." Li Xumu squeezed upwards and complained: "You have to have 180 pounds!" ”

Zhang Xiaochai blushed and patted his shoulder, no longer making a sound. The whole body simply stuck to Li Xumu like this, feeling the other party's body temperature and heartbeat.

Neither of them spoke in such an awkward situation. Although Li Xumu couldn't see Zhang Xiaochai's expression, he could feel bursts of fragrance lingering in his nose.

Zhang Xiaochai was the first to speak, "That... Wood, what do you think it's like to like someone? ”

Li Xumu recalled all kinds of fragments when he was with Zhao Yunuo, and then there was no news now.

"I think that liking someone should be desperate to make the other person good, and you can sacrifice everything for her."

"Hmm..."Zhang Xiaochai, who was on the back, nodded silently.

The rain was still falling in earnest.
